We move brands, people, and businesses toward something better.
In a time of constant stimulation, “Outside you realize what you truly need” has inspired the Dutch to engage more consciously with nature and their outdoor gear. Through powerful storytelling across various media, Bever has increased brand awareness not only among existing customers but also among a new, younger audience. In addition, Bever significantly strengthened its sustainable image by collecting reusable clothing during the Big Deal campaign around Black Friday.
Many young people see ‘pay later’ as easy and harmless — until it leads to unexpected debt. To make that risk visible, we created the Betaal-Later-Kater (Pay-Later Cat): a grumpy cat that shows up when you delay a payment, and won’t leave until you take smart financial steps. Together with the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment and the Money Wise Platform, we launched a fully digital campaign with short videos, influencers, and a viral Snapchat lens. The result: more young people now think twice before using pay later. Awareness and online searches around financial risks rose sharply. Because behind every delayed payment, a Pay-Later Cat might be waiting.
A new law in the Netherlands redefines how we look at sexual consent: sex must always be mutual. If one person clearly doesn’t want it, continuing is punishable by law. But how do you bring that message across without sounding accusatory? Most people already know the difference between respectful and unacceptable behaviour — yet we rarely talk about it. That’s why we launched a campaign rooted in what people themselves believe. We asked the public about specific situations, and the message came through loud and clear: unwanted comments, touching, or following someone just aren’t okay. By showing this shared sense of right and wrong, the campaign helps make the new law feel personal, relevant and real.
Optimel Protein brings protein out of the gym and into real life. The campaign shows that daily life — juggling work, kids, and to-do lists — is its own kind of Olympic sport. By focusing on how protein helps you stay full and energized, not just build muscle, Optimel reaches a wider audience. With relatable stories and big-pack formats, protein becomes a natural part of everyday eating. Healthy food, for real life — not just for athletes.
To build the bakery brand Bolletje, we've created a remarkably colorful world in which we meet Bolletje’s baker, Daan. He is a personification of the new logo and embodies the ingenuity of the brand. Daan knows exactly what you need today and has more ideas up his sleeve. That's how he makes every day a little brighter and more nutritious with his ingenious recipes.
We all want to grow old, just not feel old. That’s why many people avoid thinking or talking about later. But the sooner you do, the better you can shape a future that fits you. For the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport of the Netherlands, we turned a heavy topic into something positive and hopeful. In a powerful film, three people guide a loved one through their life story — told with personal photos and video — before opening a conversation about the future. Because looking back helps you look ahead. Start talking about tomorrow today
Research shows that 1 in 3 Dutch people own smart devices that never get updated, and 43% don’t install updates on new devices right away. That’s not just unsafe, it’s a waste of what smart tech can do. For the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, we created the campaign ‘Keep your devices smart. Do your updates.’ Instead of fear, we used positive triggers and timing to drive lasting behaviour. Meet Slimpie, a smart speaker-lamp who reminds you to update with humour and relevance, from not missing a penalty during the Euros to keeping your router safe year-round. Online videos and the interactive House IQ Test on doejeupdates.nl make updates fun, personal and impossible to ignore.
65% of Africa’s farmland is degraded. Climate change, deforestation, and unsustainable farming have stripped the soil of its life. The consequences are severe: water scarcity, expanding deserts, and shrinking space to grow food. But a powerful counter-movement is rising. Across the continent, local heroes are leading the way in restoring the land. They’re reviving the soil, protecting biodiversity, and building resilience on a scale the world has never seen. This movement is called Restore Local – and now, it has its own brand identity. Co-created with over 240 farmers, activists, and community leaders from Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana, and Burundi. A brand rooted in the stories, values, and traditions of those driving change. By Africa, for Africa.
Every child has a superpower: the strength to bounce back, grow, and move forward. But some just need help unlocking it. Too many children in the Netherlands grow up with poverty, loneliness, or problems at home. Without a solid foundation, resilience is hard to build. That’s why Kinderpostzegels exists. For its 100th anniversary, we helped shift the focus: from stamps to strength. A new campaign that makes resilience a shared mission. At its heart: a trampoline shaped like a stamp — symbol of a soft landing and a spring forward. A bright orange ribbon runs through the campaign, connecting everyone who joins in: from kids at the door to partners across the country.
We launched Pearle's new positioning: 'Customisation for your eyes'. ('Maatwerk voor jouw ogen'). The new brand story reinforces Pearle's mission to give as many people as possible access to optimal vision and healthy eyes. Research showed us people are positively surprised by Pearle’s expertise and customer-friendliness, so it was time to update Pearle’s brand image. Optimal vision requires expert and personal advice, which is always tailor-made. The story is told through the eyes of the optician. She shows that it's all about customisation: from careful eye measurement to choosing the right lenses and the best-fitting frame. And always within the limits of your personal budget.
Renewi, traditionally a waste processor, has recently become more focused on creating raw materials from waste and contributing to sustainability. This campaign invites companies and consumers to help build the circular economy, offering fresh energy and new opportunities.
With mounting pressure on the health care system, Mediq wants to help patients feel human. We involved employees by collecting their stories and building a new brand proposition together. This brand campaign reflects their efforts to improve the system and their search for structural solutions to make a difference to patients’ lives and help them live life to its fullest.
Sweetie is a virtual 10-year-old Filipino girl we created to hunt down men who have webcam sex with children. We went undercover for 8 months, identified 1,000 predators and handed them over to Interpol. Sweetie instantly became world news. Laws were changed. Men were rescued. Children were saved. Sweetie was recognized by D&AD as 1 of the 10 best campaigns of the decade.
